I wasn't sure what I was getting and if it would be difficult to setup. Once I received it, the setup was easy and my first attempt to use wasn't too bad. I need to get a feel for the sure stitch and my jukitl2000

Set up my Block Rockit yesterday. I am in love. Still playing with tension but certainly not the nightmare people have made it out to be. Looking pretty good already! Looking forward to many years of use with my new toy.

I've had my Block Rockit just about a year now. I was one of the first customers to get one when they first came out.

Why did I buy a Block Rockit? I know of only one other machine that is in the price range of the Block Rockit and it doesn't have anywhere near the standard items on it like the Block Rockit does. Some of the standard items for the Rockit are regulated stitch (which is really really great), "M" size bobbins, etc.

The machine runs really smooth. I'm working on my 10th quilt with the Block Rockit. After spending some time going through the learning curve (and there is one with any long arm or midarm) I seldom have to touch my bobbin tension adjustment. I'll be completing a twin size quilt today and taking it off the frame and I haven't had to adjust my bobbin one time since setting it at the beginning of the quilt. (I do check the stitches every time I change bobbins)

Not only is the Block Rockit a great machine but the way Kathy Quilts and The Grace Company stands behind this machine is unbelievable. This is a major plus if you've ever tried dealing with a company that doesn't stand behind what it sells.

The 15" throat is great. I've completed two queen size quilts and had plenty of throat space when you start rolling the quilt. I can do a 10" block without rolling if I don't have to have the ruler plate on. The ruler plate does cut down on the size of block a bit but it does on any machine you have.

I've used several types of thread including polyester embroidery thread and once you get the tension right it sewed all of them with no problems.

I've used groovy boards, pantographs with the laser light, ruler work with the base plate attached and free hand and all work great. This machine on my Grace SR2 frame is smooth. They didn't have the Launch Pad frame out when I bought mine or I would have it.
